Coding Hazardous Tree Failures for a Data Management System. Gen Coding Hazardous Tree Failures for a Data Management System Lee A. Paine PACIFIC SOUTHWEST GENERAL TECHNICAL Forest and Range REPORT PSW- 29 Experiment Station Paine, Lee A. 1978. Coding hazardous tree failures for a data management system. Gen. Tech. Rep. PSW-29, 108 p., illus. Pacific Southwest Forest and Range Exp. Stn., Forest Serv., U.S. Dep. Agric., Berkeley, Calif. Codes for automatic data processing (ADP) are provided for hazardous tree failure data submitted on Report of Tree Failure forms. Definitions of data items and suggestions for interpreting ambiguously worded reports are also included. The manual is intended to insure the production of accurate and consistent punched ADP cards which are used in transfer of the data to magnetic tapes. The codes and card format specified are compatible with the computer processing and analysis pro- grams provided in a user's guide, General Technical Report PSW-24. The guide covers use of the codes to specify the desired categories and ranges of data (species, diameters, organization, areas, times, conditions, etc.) to be included in analyses. Retrieval Terms: hazard trees; hazard reduction; recreation areas; urban forestry; safety standards; data management; computer programs; coding. The Author Lee A. Paine is a forest pathologist, stationed in Berkeley, studying problems in forest tree diseases, particularly in relation to evaluation and control of public hazard and safety on wooded recreation sites. He came to the Pacific Southwest Station from the Canadian Science Service in 1957. He holds bachelor's (1943) and master's (1947) degrees in forestry from the University of Idaho and a doctorate (1951) from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. Acknowledgment A manual such as this necessarily embodies many suggestions and modifications by the originators and users. I am grateful to the forestry, biology and statistical aids, both graduate and undergraduate students at local universities, who have made the coding manual easier to use by discovering inconsistencies and ambiguities. Their work has improved the data coding process and, in the end, the reliability of data analyses. In particular, I thank Richard D. Boothe, who was largely responsible for the forest type code condensation and descriptions. Paine, Lee A. 1979. Coding hazardous tree failures for a data management system. Gen. Tech. Rep.

    United States Department of Agriculture Wilderness Visitors and Forest Service Recreation Impacts: Baseline Rocky Mountain Research Station Data Available for Twentieth General Technical Report RMRS-GTR-117 Century Conditions September 2003 David N. Cole Vita Wright Abstract __________________________________________ Cole, David N.; Wright, Vita. 2003. Wilderness visitors and recreation impacts: baseline data available for twentieth century conditions. Gen. Tech. Rep. RMRS-GTR-117. Ogden, UT: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Rocky Mountain Research Station. 52 p. This report provides an assessment and compilation of recreation-related monitoring data sources across the National Wilderness Preservation System (NWPS). Telephone interviews with managers of all units of the NWPS and a literature search were conducted to locate studies that provide campsite impact data, trail impact data, and information about visitor characteristics. Of the 628 wildernesses that comprised the NWPS in January 2000, 51 percent had baseline campsite data, 9 percent had trail condition data and 24 percent had data on visitor characteristics. Wildernesses managed by the Forest Service and National Park Service were much more likely to have data than wildernesses managed by the Bureau of Land Management and Fish and Wildlife Service. Both unpublished data collected by the management agencies and data published in reports are included. Extensive appendices provide detailed information about available data for every study that we located. These have been organized by wilderness so that it is easy to locate all the information available for each wilderness in the NWPS. Keywords: campsite condition, monitoring, National Wilderness Preservation System, trail condition, visitor characteristics The Authors _______________________________________ David N.
